--

The start of summer marks the perfect time to elevate your entertaining game. And for hosts who aspire to turn ordinary backyard cookouts into extraordinary experiences, the answer is clear: Shark Home and Ninja Kitchen have delivered the ultimate lineup of high-performance, design-forward appliances and outdoor solutions.

If you’re searching for the best products to make this summer’s gatherings unforgettable, these essentials are not just worth considering — they’re essential.

A Culinary Summer Renaissance: The FlexFlame, Artisan, and ProChef Revolution

The heart of every summer gathering beats at the grill, and with Ninja’s Ninja FlexFlame™ Propane Grill & Outdoor Cooking System, your backyard is instantly transformed into a culinary destination. This is not your father’s barbecue.

The FlexFlame is a five-in-one masterwork of outdoor engineering, capable of everything from precision searing to full-on wood-fired pizza nights. It’s a striking centerpiece — sleek, versatile, and built for culinary spectacle. Whether you’re sizzling tomahawk steaks or caramelizing stone fruits for a grilled dessert, the FlexFlame empowers hosts with professional-level performance. And during National Barbecue Week, it gets even better: every FlexFlame purchase includes a Ninja FrostVault™ Wheeled Cooler, making your setup not only complete but truly elite.

To complement the grill is the Ninja ProChef™ Wireless Thermometer, a smart device that lets you step away from the fire without compromising results. Linked directly to your smartphone, it ensures your brisket never overcooks and your scallops hit their perfect doneness. Precision meets freedom, and guests notice.

But no summer soirée is complete without pizza. Cue the Ninja Artisan™ 5-in-1 Portable Electric Pizza & Outdoor Oven. If there is one word to describe it, it’s “effortless excellence.” In just three minutes, you can deliver Neapolitan pies worthy of Naples itself. Whether you’re baking pan-style deep dish or a classic New York slice, its five distinct presets guarantee delicious results every time. Pizza night has finally met its match.

Cool Like That: FrostVault Technology and Ninja’s Chilling Charm

Hot days demand cool solutions, and Ninja FrostVault™ Go coolers are quite possibly the most innovative entertainers’ accessory this summer. With an almost architectural design and proprietary insulation tech, the Ninja FrostVault™ Wheeled Cooler with Dry Zone maintain ice, drinks, and perishables at peak serving temperature for days — not hours. This isn’t just a cooler; it’s a luxury mobile chill station, offered in three sizes to accommodate everything from a few bottles of rosé to a full weekend’s worth of party provisions. Pair with a chic lawn chair and you’ve got the perfect sunset setup.

For more agile adventures, the Ninja FrostVault™ Go takes the lead. Lightweight but rugged, and capable of holding up to 36 cans, it’s the essential summer accessory for picnics, beach trips, and rooftop hangs. Your drinks stay icy cold, your snacks stay fresh, and your style remains intact.

Sip, Swirl, and Serve: The Joy of Thirsti, SLUSHi, and Swirl

Summer beverages are no longer just about what’s in the glass — they’re about how it got there. The Ninja Thirsti™ is what happens when hydration meets design. Gone are the days of dozens of plastic bottles cluttering your bar. With over 20 zero-calorie and sugar-free flavor pods, it’s a still and sparkling drink station that makes any gathering more sustainable — and far more chic. Brunch mimosas? Sparkling cucumber-lime mocktails? Personalized elderflower spritz? All with the push of a button.

If you’re feeling festive, the Ninja SLUSHi™ machine might be summer’s MVP. It turns ice into magic, churning out cocktails, mocktails, and kid-friendly slushies in mere seconds. Think of it as your home’s new frozen bar manager — equipped with RapidChill™ Technology, this appliance delivers smooth, flavorful creations that become instant crowd-pleasers.

Rounding out the trifecta is the Ninja Swirl™ by CREAMi®, a countertop device that brings artisanal ice cream and gelato to your fingertips. It’s more than dessert — it’s a production. Guests get involved. Kids squeal. Adults savor spoonfuls of bourbon caramel swirl or vegan coconut sorbet. Summer sweetens in every bite.

The Chill Factor: Fans with Flair from Shark FlexBreeze™

Comfort is king when entertaining outdoors, and the
Shark FlexBreeze™ Pro Mist Indoor Outdoor Pedestal & Table Fan With Water Tank

And for those craving style with their cool, the Shark™ TurboBlade™ Ultra Powerful Bladeless Tower Fan stands tall in its class. Elegant in form and mighty in performance, it offers precise, whisper-quiet climate control that’s worthy of display in any living room or sunroom.

Wellness in the Sun: CryoGlow™, FlexStyle®, and Air Purification on Demand

Not to be outshone, the beauty and self-care lineup from Shark is another summer sensation. The Shark™ CryoGlow™ Red Blue & Infrared iQLED Face Mask & Under Eye Cooling brings spa-grade light therapy and cryo-cooling to your own bedroom.

Whether after a long day in the sun or before an evening garden party, its red, blue, and infrared tech rejuvenates your skin, banishing redness and leaving a glow that rivals golden hour.

Meanwhile, the Shark FlexStyle® Air Styling & Drying System helps hosts (and guests) look effortlessly fabulous. It’s a hair dryer, multi-styler, and sleek beauty tool all in one, crafted with low-heat tech that protects hair from frizz and flyaways. It’s summer style, perfected.

And as a final touch, the Shark NeverChange™ Air Purifier Compact Pro offers guests and family clean, filtered air without the hassle of constant filter swaps. Ideal for allergy-prone households or pet-friendly environments, it’s a silent guardian of well-being.

The Final Word: Summer Starts Here

If summer is a stage, then Shark and Ninja are the set designers, lighting crew, and co-stars of the show. This curated lineup of outdoor cookery, hydration innovation, cooling tech, and home-ready smart tools is more than impressive — it’s aspirational. It makes summer feel luxurious, effortless, and fun.
